Abstract


With the development of society, English plays more and more important roles in different fields, such as social politics, economy, culture, science and education.Therefore, it is vital to improve the quality of English teaching. However, the traditional English teaching process, especially for English writing class, needs to be changed because it just focuses on the passing of knowledge rather than the sharpening of writing ability. As a kind of new and advanced teaching methods, the cooperative learning is widely used to improve the efficiency of English writing class which is regarded as an interactive and communicative way to achieve academic performance in English writing.Based on theoretical foundations, the author gives a brief introduction to the development of cooperative learning. Besides, the paper presents the present situation and related researches of cooperative learning both at home and abroad which supply strong evidence to prove its advantages, compared with the traditional English teaching models for writing. Furthermore, the paper analyzes different teaching approaches closely related to English writing class, including advantages and disadvantages. Then the paper made a survey to point out the traditional models need to be changed and try to apply cooperative learning to English writing class.To prove the effectiveness of cooperative teaching for English writing, the author made an experiment in two parallel classes which lasted for five months. Through two questionnaires and tests before and after the experiment, the author collected and analyzed related data and information. Finally, the paper made a summary, showing the importance and significance of applying cooperative learning strategy in a senior English writing class. Still, there are some problems unsolved and we need to make a further research to improve and develop the new teaching process. However, we should not ignore the benefits of cooperative learning used in English writing class and try to employ it in more and more English class teaching.
